Discussing the day : Trends of the World – affecting Scouts – Reaction to the sessions – Focus on Education:

When we were discussing the sessions and trying to decide which topic concerned us the most, we pretty quickly realized that already this task was alsmot impossible to solve as we are such a diverse group.

We decided to discuss Education as it’s a big issue for everyone, because of different reasons and considering the different background knowledge all of us have. It was nice to see how all the poeple in the group think about it.

Bosnia-Herzegovina: "It’s still very hard for some people to access University"
